MR, BANKS DOES A BIT
J OF REPORTING
The only step remaining to make
ISha whole thing Irretrievable was
Jfche announcement of the engage
ment In the papers.
p Mrs, Banks considered the word
ing of the notice of vital importance.
;Her brother, Uncle Charlie, had
Worked on a Chicago newspaper for
Several weeks when he was a boy.
Jle was now called in as a consult
ant. Uncle Charlie said it didn't make
bit of difference how you wrote
e notice. The society editor would
and vour cony to tne omce ooy,
ffrho would bungle up the whole
41iing anyhow.
"Oh. Stanley I The one thing Vhe
child"
I know. I know. But what can you
do? That's labor for you. They don't
care any more. It's the reason the
country's in such a mess.
He climbed the stairs noiselessly,
hoping that Kay might sleep until
he was safely on the train to town,
v Wortanatelr, h had not been mil taken.
m
w Mrs. Banks pooh-poohed this.
This notice was going to be letter-
'berfect. It was written, read, re
written, reread, submitted to the
J eunstan iamny, revisea ana resuu
' Kitted.
Kay was the only person who
Inowea no interest, as iong as uiey
Jpelled her name with a "K" and
not a. "C" she was satisfied.
v Mr. Banks finally took what he
hoped was the right draft down to
Khe office to have Miss Bellamy
make six copies.
, Miss Bellamy was more excited
bout the wedding than any of the
principals. She had been his sec
retary for fifteen years, during
rhich fine had devoted so much
lime to his personal as well as his
eBusiness an airs tnat sne naa iouna
io opportunity to get married
feerself. She had a real affection
for Mr. Banks, but It was that of
k mother for a backward son. Mrs.
flanks she secretly regarded as a
Miss Bellamy made several edit
orial changes in the copy without
even referring the matter to Mr.
Banks. Then she typed it with un
erring speed. "We must read this
back, ' she said. "There mustn't be
any mistakes at this point." She
read while Mr. Banks stared un
Meelngly at the original with fierce
Concentration.
"There," he said. "That's one Job
cone as it should be." Miss Bellamy
nodded understand lngly.
The following morning he was
j&ut of bed before the alarm went
Off. The morning paper lay on the
door mat. He glanced up and down
vie maaea lengtn or Mapie urive
His neighbors slumbered, uncon
scious of the bombshell about to
fxpioae among mem.
p. Sitting on the bottom steps of
tile front stairs, he turned to the
fioclety section. There was Kay's
face, smiling at him, and In the
Slews column next to the picture
he headline "Catherine Banks to
Wed ex-Marine Officer."
m He looked again. Unfortunately
he had not been mistaken. It was
Upelled with a "C" instead of a "K."
That damn fool editor.
B He padded In his bare feet to the
little room behind the stairs known
s "The Office." Two of MIrs
Bellamy's copies of the release were
lng on the desk. He had to force
Jjlmself to look. "Mr, and Mrs.
Stanley Banks of Fairvlew Manor
IWinounce the engagement of their
daughter Catherine." How COULD
Miss Bellamy ! Then he remem
bered that he had read it back with
fier,
JS "Is It in?" Mrs. Banks was stand
ing in the doorway.
m 'Yes, but they've garbled It up
list as Uncle Charlie said they
Jpould. They've spelled Kay's name
Wrong."
A modern wedding is somewhat
like a new theatrical production.
Once the cast has been decided
upon, the next thing is to determine
whether it is to be Big Theater or
Little Theater and then fill the
house.
Kay opened the arguement at
dinner. "I'll tell you one thing," she
said. "This is going to be a SMALL
wedding and a small RECEPTION,
I'm going to have my own friends
and its not going to be a business
convention.
"Who said anything about a bus
iness convention?" Interrupted Mr.
Bank's. "All I'm saying is you'll
probably wind up with either thirty
or tnree nunarea.
"Three HUNDRED!" There was
a suggestion of hysteria in Kay's
voice. "Pops, if you mean that you're
CRAZY. I know what you and Mom
want. You want every old foggy in
town so that you can hear them say,
"Yes. she really was TOO lovely,"
wen i just wont have it."
Mr. Banks had an inspiration. He
fetched a yellow pad of paper and
placed it beside his plate. On it he
wrote tnree names.
"There." he said, "that's the
smallest wedding you can have
unaer tne law you and Buckley
ana tne weverena uyrus uaiswortny.
inow. Anyooay eiser '
Kay threw up her hands, "Really,
this is so CHILDISH, Pops. You
always get so u luurtmu al."
Sometimes your father has irood
ideas, Kay. Go on, Stanley. Just
nut aown tne uunstans and our
selves and Ben and Tommv."
"Ana Aunt Harriet, naturally, and
uiicie unarm:, saiu ivay.
He wai ruined. Clearly and utterly ruined.
"Of course," said Mr. Banks. "But
I'd go slow from there in." He
wrote rapidly, keeninir a tally on the
siae oi tne paper. Alter tnree quar
ters oi an nour ne ran out or sheets.
Do you know how many you have
on tne list now?"
"About fifty," said Kay sulkily.
"Two hundred and six. And that
doesn't include most of our friends,
and perhaps Buckley's family might
have one or two people they'd like
to squeeze in."
"Oh, all RIGHT, Pops, if you're
going to be so disagreeable about
it. But I tell you its MY wedding
and its going to be SMALL. I don't
uakih.
She suddenly left the table and
rushed up the stairs. Mr. Banks
stared alter her in amazement.
"Good God, Elite. What's the matter
with Kay? We're just sitting here
quietly putting down a few names
ana she goes all to pieces."
"She's nervous." said Tommv.
through a mouthful of cake. "AH
women are nervous. "
Late that night, Mr. Banks lay on
his back gazing at the watery re
flection of the street ltjht on tht
ceuing.
Three hundred people drinking
his champagne. Three hundred
people eatniK his food. Thre hun
dred --
He was ruined. Clearly ruined. All
ma me ne nan oeen a pruoent and
thrifty man. Naw he was caught in
the nutcracker of the conventions
and was about to squeeze out his
economic me with his own hands.
I won't do it." he ffrnnnrd rnlllno-
onto his side. But he knew he
wouia.
